As long as I see, Theatermode has TWO basic utilities.

First one: to use it as a Media Center, so the screen is used to display the cover, song info, and coming songs. For example: (Though everybody has its favourite display and configuration)




Second one: to use it as a 'Desktop' with a nice background and some basic info about the song (specially using the 'EndOfTrack' rotate setting) . I'm finding it really nice when chatting or skyping with friends. Though I think it could have much more uses (like distraction free writing, post-it board and similars)




Right now , to select one of them I have to go to the plugin folder and change the setting file and  the backgrounds. Kind of quick, with a shortcut and copy-paste. But it would be great to be able to select one of them directly in MB...

i guess that could be implemented as completely configurable by the plugin detecting the following structure

TheaterMode.Settings.xml
TheaterMode.Background.jpg
TheaterMode.Rotation\
TheaterMode.List\
    xxxxx.jpg
    xxxxx.xml
    xxxxx.Rotation\
    yyyyy.jpg
    yyyyy.xml
    yyyyy.Rotation\

so when a TheaterMode.List folder exists the Theater Mode menu would open a list of choices
Theater Mode ->
    Default
    xxxxx
    yyyyy
